To practice yoga-action,
one must eat less and consume easily digestible food. Consuming excess food
impedes yogasadhana. Hot, cold,
pungent, spicy, bitter, stale food in their extremities should never be
consumed ………. Five to six hours of sleep regularly is a must. Married people
should have coitus twice a month. By this the mind is at rest and sadhana is also practiced well.
If a great deal of Kriya
is practiced a deep engrossment arises and a sound can be heard within the
occiput which is known as Nadabrahma.
After meals, one should lie down on the left side.
…….if anyone wishes to fulfill this human life, he has
definitely to bathe in the three sacred streams within his own body. These
three sacred streams are the three nerves – Ida,
Pingala and Sushumna prevalent in
every human being. They are respectively known as the rivers Ganges, Yamuna and
Sarasvati.
Religion and irreligion, happiness and sorrow etc. are all
functions of the mind, but the Infinite within you is devoid of everything.
……..when regular practice of Pranakarma stills Prana, sleep
is not required thereby making a yogi accustomed of being in Samadhi for a long
period of time in this manner. He does not require oxygen also. …….when a yogi
through yoga action is capable to cease the function of each and every cell of
his body, then he can exist without oxygen, exhalation is absent then. In this
state thought the cells remain non-functional for a prolonged period they are
not destroyed.
It is extremely difficult to be steadfast keeping the eyes
in a raised position on the forehead above the nose between the eyebrows, but
if one can remain in this manner the state of settlement or Samadhi can be
attained.
